  • Max Lucado Daily Devotional - Thought Management Toolbox

    Listen to Today's Devotion

    Three big ideas are critical for taming our thoughts:

    • Practice Picky Thinking (thought prevention). Just because you have a thought doesn’t mean you need to think it.
    • Identify UFOs (thought progression). An untruth leads to a false narrative that creates an overreaction.
    • Uproot and Replant (thought extraction). Rather than let the untruth grow, give the lie a tug and replace it with God’s truth.


      • These are the tools in your thought management toolbox. Until we put these ideas to work, they are simply that— ideas. I trace issues to one cause: stinking thinking. You will see that the tools in your toolbox will work on anything Satan throws at you.

    • Max Lucado Daily Devotional - Biblical Meditation

      Listen to Today's Devotion

      Paul wrote, “Let the peace that Christ gives control your thinking” (Colossians 3:15 NCV). How does this happen? The answer appears in the next verse: “Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another” (Colossians 3:16 NKJV).

      Don’t treat Scripture like a guest, an occasional visitor, or temporary roommate. His truth sits at the dinner table, lingers in the living room, and is welcome in the bedroom. And it occupies its place richly. It pays dividends. It brings benefits. Ingested Scripture is vitamin C for the inner person.

      Satan is allergic to God’s truth. When you speak Scripture, he skedaddles. He hopes you never hear these words spoken by Jesus: “You will know the truth and the truth will set you free” (John 8:32 NIV).

    • Max Lucado Daily Devotional - The Implanted Word

      Listen to Today's Devotion

      James, the half-brother of Jesus, gave this admonition: “Receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls” (James 1:21 ESV). What a grand invitation! It’s not enough to uproot, we must also replant.

      Jesus described a demon who had been cast out of a person. It roams about, looking for a new home. Not finding one, it returns to its former place of residence and finds it “spotlessly clean, but vacant” (Matthew 12:43 MSG). The demon sees no barrier, alerts its buddies, and they show up with a keg of chaos.

      To clean out the old is wonderful, but to usher in the new—that’s essential. Uprooting weeds of lies is necessary. Replacing them with truth is vital.
